Dear friends,
let me introduce myself

My name is Kseniya, and for the past four years crocheting has
been my hobby. I'm absolutely obsessed with crocheting Amigurumi
toys and photographing my toys in the best way to present my
creations. Perhaps, the idea to combine these two kinds of
expressing myself is the true reason why I'm so obsessed with
amigurumi and that is why we are both here to crochet the cutest
travel and chill lover - my Froggy.

This project became a real challenge for me.I guess this is the main
reason why it is so loved not only by me, but by many of you. Never
before I didn't remake the parts of the project so many times over
and over again to get the right shape. There is not such part that I
have crocheted
from the first time and
got it right. For example,
to get the right shape of
the eyes I needed about
10 tries, and for the final
head shape I needed 3
tries. The project became
a hard but truely a gift of
fate. It helps me to be
more patient and selfsure
in what I do.

Now I would like you to


share with me the
experience in creating the
cutest flower guy - the
most charismatic froggy.
He will bring only good
vibes and memories to
you.

body and legs 8
With the yarn of lime color #193.
Start crocheting from the bottom of the body,
next going to the legs and after that we will go
back to the body.

1. 8 sc in MR (8)
2. 8 inc (16)
3. (sc, inc)*8 (24)
4. (2 sc, inc)*8 (32), fasten off (рiс. 8).

Going to the toes. As we did it in hands we start


from the toes (3 pcs for each leg), next we join
them to the foot. Make 2 toes for the 1st leg
and fasten them off, don't cut the thread on the
3rd toe and continue to crochet the foot:
9
1. 6 sc in MR (6)
2. (sc, inc)*3 (9)
3. 9 sc (9)
4. (sc, dec)*3 (6)
5. 6 sc (6)
6. 3 sc along the 3rd toe, 3 sc along the 2nd
toe, 6 sc along the 1st toe, 3 sc along the
2nd toe, 3 sc along the 3rd toe (18) (рiс. 9),
put the marker.
7-10. 18 sc (18), 4 rnds, stuff the toes
11. (4 sc, dec)*3 (15)
12-15. 15 sc (15), 4 rnds

17. 12 sc (12), make 1 shift st, the end of
the rnd must be placed on the side edge of
the foot, stuff the foot (рiс. 10). 6 10
Making the heel of the foot:
18. 6 sc, ch, turn the work,
3 dec, ch, turn the work,
triple dec (crochet 3 sc together), put the
marker (рiс. 11,12).

Prepare the piece of the wire about 30 cm long,


wrap the loop on the end of it with the thin
layers of the adhesive woven tape bandage (рiс.
13).
19. 2 sc along the side of the heel of the foot, 6
sc along the foot, 2 sc along the side of the heel
13
Kseniya Krupskaya • FROGGY pattern • 2022
of the foot, 1 sc along the foot (the point
where we worked 3 sc together) (11), insert
the wire into the foot (рiс. 14).
11
20. 9 sc, dec (10), stuff the heel of the foot

Next stuff the leg as you crochet.

21-50. 10 sc (10), 30 rnds


51. (4 sc, inc)*2 (12)
52. 12 sc (12), make some shift stitches.

You need to make it according to your thread tention.


Tne number of shift stitches can be different.

The marker on the 2nd leg must be placed


in the middle of the back side (рiс. 20), for
the 1st one the place is not so important.

1st leg:
8 sc, fasten off. 12
2nd leg:
19 sc, don't cut the thread, continue to
crochet the body and go back to the bottom
of the body, which we had crochet before
the toes.
Now we need to mark the stitches on the
bottom of the body symmetrically: 6 st for
ech leg, 6 st on the back of the body and 14
st on the belly (рiс. 20).
In the beginning of the 5th rnd of the body we
will crochet in the opposite direction along
the 2nd leg, but clockwise (as usual) for the
body (рiс. 21).

5. 6 sc through the 2nd leg and the body, 14 sc

body, 6 sc alond the back (32)
6. 6 sc along the 2nd leg, 14 sc along the belly,
6 sc along the 1 st leg, 6 sc along the back (32), 23
put the marker (рiс. 23). Now the start of the

Stuff the body as you crochet, otherwise it will


be problematic to make it neat and tight enough.

7. (3 sc, inc)*8 (40)


8. (4 sc, inc)*8 (48)
9. (5 sc, inc)*8 (56)
10. (6 sc, inc)*8 (64), stuff the leg, bend and twist

Kseniya Krupskaya • FROGGY pattern • 2022
Next for forming the shape of the belly we
need to mark 19 st in the middle of the back
(рiс. 27).
26

Depending on where your marker is placed,


make some shift stitches till the left pin. I
made 7 shift sts and put the marker. Now the
rnd starts here.

24. (dec, 3 sc)*8, 16 sc (48)

25-30. 48 sc (48), 6 rnds

Mark 18 stitches in the middle of the back


again (рiс. 29).

Crochet shift stitches if it is needed till the left pin or


maybe unravel some already crocheted stitches. I have
unraveled 2 stitches.
27

31. (dec, 2 sc)*8, 16 sc (40)


32-34. 40 sc (40), 3 rnds

Next we need to mark the stitches on the body


symmetrically: 4 stitches for each arm, 14
stitches on the back and 18 stitches on the
belly.

The marker must be placed at the last of 14


stitches of the back (рiс. 30-31).

enough), wrap it and continue to crochet

Now it's time to make a deal with the
end of the wire which is left. Bend it and
twist free ends so that about 5-6 cm of
the wire were out of the body (рiс. 35).

It's necessary for holding the head and


for the neck to be able to bend in any
direction. At the same time the wrapped
part of the neck must be not thick and
you wouldn't have to stuff the neck, but
only crochet around the wire.

I have wrapped the wire with a thin layer


of adhesive woven tape bandage after
twisting again.

Depending on them the gaze of the froggy can be
different. I placed the safety eyes on the inner edge
of the white part: between the 2nd and the 3rd rnds.
You can find the variations on the page with
assembling.

Close the back of the eyes. And I recommend 42


melting them. I use a household lighter. But
be careful at this step, your crocheted piece
could get damaged, stained or even burnt
when doing so. Press the melted part of the
back side of the eye with a lighter or a knife
to secure it.

assembling
1. Sculpting.
To make the eyes fit better on the head, you should make the sculpting -
hollows under the eyes. Mark 7 stitches with the pins (рiс. 48) between rnds
11 and 12. Insert the threaded needle into point 1. Make a longwise stitches
from point 2 to point 3 and from point 5 to point 4 (рiс. 49). Pull out the
needle from point 6.

Pull both free tails of the thread until you have the hollows deep enough
(рiс. 51-52) and make a knot. Insert the eyes into the eyelids, pin it (рiс. 53)

and check the result. Maybe you need to loose the tention or otherwise make
it stronger. If it is needed, pull the thread tails again and make one more
knot. Cut the thread and fasten off.

5. S e w t h e s pot s .
Depending on how many spots you crocheted 68
you can place them on the body in a very
different ways. I tried to place them to look
like it was random and assymetrically. And
in the same time I wanted them to be seen
from the front and the side look too.

I placed two big spots on the bottom of the


back and one on the back side of the head.

Pin the spots (рiс. 65-67), don't be rush


with its placing and sew them with short 69
invisible stitches through the back loops
only if you want them to look convex and
through the both loops if you want them to
look flat.

I prefer the convex look. You can see how I


placed the spots in рiс. 68-70.
